Couples Therapy in New York

Most couples don’t fight because they don’t love each other; they fight because they’re stuck in a cycle. Couples therapy helps you understand what’s actually happening underneath the conflict: unmet needs, old wounds, stress overload, mismatched coping styles, and communication breakdown


Couples therapy can help if you’re dealing with:

  • Constant arguments or repeated “same fight” conflict

  • Emotional distance, shutdown, or resentment

  • Trust issues, repair after rupture, or rebuilding after betrayal

  • Different needs around intimacy, closeness, or independence

  • Difficulty communicating without escalation

What Couples Therapy Can Change

  • Identify and interrupt your conflict cycle

  • Learn communication tools that actually work in real life

  • Create emotional safety and better repair after conflict

  • Strengthen boundaries and shared decision-making

  • Rebuild connection and intimacy over time


My Approach

I support couples in building both practical skills and emotional understanding. Many conflicts are rooted in subjective lived experience; two people can have different “truths” and both make sense. Therapy becomes a space to slow down, clarify impact vs intention, and learn how to stay connected even when you disagree. My therapy approach is rooted in the Gottman Method.
